The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1069 Love And Misery

Lory jumped into the air while Girsha made a long, devastating scream then turned into a ball then pierced through Lory's chest as soon as a pair of giant wings appeared behind Lory's back.

Lory flew through the thick smoke and dust and then stopped in front of a fireball blazing in golden flames.

In the center a man floating in the air bare-chested and almost all of his robes burn on fire, the man's gaze was dead and empty while in his right hand he was tightly gripping a sword covered with glowing red light.

Lory's face contorted, and a mixture of pain and guilt showed on her face Lory then glance at the sword in his hand. Emperor Lei Yu said the Crimson Lightning sword and trinity staff are the same, why can't she realize it before?

It was common knowledge in his world that every ancient weapon would cultivate feelings after reaching a thousand years and at that time the weapon would be able to absorb the feelings of its owner especially strong feelings such as trauma.

Just like the trinity staff that had absorbed Lory's many feelings before it was broken into seven pieces.

All feelings of anger, sadness, pain, despair, selfishness, regret, hope, love, and longing are absorbed by the trinity staff, therefore the white tree brings Ming Yue Yin into Lory's past dreams because the fragment absorbs Lory's longing feelings, while the fragment in the white Sword that was driving Li Mo Zhen crazy absorbed Lory's sadness and despair.

While the fragment on Nan Yu Wei's Providence sword absorbed Lory's anger for therefore the reaction from the fragment is shown to be the most violent compared to the others fragment, then the fragment left on Huwang Shen Zi's legendary beast was a feeling of hope and proved to be the most powerful which was why the curse within Lory reacted so strongly.

Then the last two fragments were left on Zi Quan Mei's totem which helped her cultivate like Nan Yu Wei's sword of providence but thankfully the feelings absorbed by Zi Quan Mei's totem were not as fierce as providence's sword but still it a negative feeling therefore like Providence's sword the reaction of the fragments that had been awakened by sensing the presence of the original owner eventually reject Zi Quan Mei exploitation, although not as badly as Nan Yu Wei.

The last fragment found was absorbed in the spirit stone for hundreds of years which finally gave the spirit stone the power to fight the black miasma which gave power to dark creatures such as Hybrid Beasts and critters.

But the effect of each fragment is not so severe because the trinity wand has broken and its power is spread to various objects that absorb the fragment's power, therefore, the effect is gradual and sometimes it's too subtle for anyone to notice.

However, the Crimson Lightning Sword was not the same. The sword is intact and the trauma absorbed from emperor Lei Yu is probably worse than Lory needless to say the resentment preserved for thousands of years will not be able to be overcome by a human who does not even live more than a hundred years because Zhao Li Xin had no chance against it.

Lory also knew this, she finally understood why Lazarus wanted Zhao Li Xin to have the crimson lightning sword once Zhao Li Xin was influenced by the sword madness Lazarus expect Zhao Li Xin to kill Lory with his own hands by then she will become Zhao Li Xin's sacrifice at the same time drive Zhao Li Xin into madness and once Zhao Li Xin loses his sanity Lazarus will take over Zhao Li Xin's body then turned him into his eternal vessel.

'How could I'm not seeing this' Lory's heart sank like stone as she blame herself.

"Li Xin, it's me, don't you recognize me?" Lory tried to provoke Zhao Li Xin's memory, Lory couldn't believe there was no trace of her left in him.

"Li Xin it's me, I'm Lory...your wife...I'm your Lorient, please remember..." her eyes turned misty.

Zhao Li Xin groaned viciously once again swinging his sword and the burning gold flames shot toward Lory like a fire whip.

<strong>[WATCH OUT!]</strong> Girsha cried.

Lory crossed her arms in front of her chest instantly Lucient's barrier blocked Zhao Li Xin's attack still her hands shaking from the violent attack.

[Lory, he doesn't recognize you!] Girsha hastily reminds her.

Lory clenched her fists [No...I will not believe it!]

Zhao Li Xin let out a long roar then lunged and shot like a bullet while aiming his sword at Lory.

Inevitably Lory summoned her sword from her ring soon after the sound of metal clashed resound.

Zhao Li Xin looked annoyed that Lory could match his strength so once again he swung his sword even harder and Lory was forced to parry every attack Zhao Li Xin gave and the sound of their powerful collision spread like a gust of strong wind that toppled dry trees and sent embers flying into the air.

"Li Xin stop - I'm begging you - <strong>PLEASE STOP!</strong>" Lory cried desperately but Zhao Li Xin seem not to hear her.

Zhao Li Xin slashed his sword at Lory without hesitation and then painstakingly blocked by Lory's sword, alas Lory's sword broke due to the powerful hit from Zhao Li Xin eventually her sword couldn't withstand the strength of the crimson Lightning sword. The strong hit pushed Lory away and there her to the air like a dry leaf swept by the harsh wind thankfully Girsha managed to spread his wings swiftly helping Lory to control her fall. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Once Lory managed to control her movement her arm shook profusely because of Zhao Li Xin's powerful attack but Lory had no time to be shocked cause Zhao Li Xin stormed towards her again.

[Lory he's coming again, you can't hesitate!] Girsha's horror is the alarm that wakes Lory from her chaotic thoughts.

For a moment all the memories they spent together flashed through her mind, all the laughter, tears, and joy they spent together every kiss and hugged they made but that man was no longer there.

Meanwhile, in the distance a snake-yellow-eyed man watched ecstatically like a child watching his favorite show, both his eyes sparkling with joy.

"Look - look, Min Na isn't that a beautiful sight!" Lazarus pointed up while grinning like a child.

Lao Min Na set her sights on Zhao Li Xin and Lory's fierce battle, When remembering how Lory and Zhao Li Xin used to be, she never thought that Lazarus could force them to fight to the death like now, in the end, the love they proudly professed all this time was nothing but a joke, Lao Min Na watches them, and snickered.

In the end, no one escapes from Lazarus' grip if only they know that resistance is futile and they are only preserving themselves for a much worst tragedy, they must regret now, they should join Lazarus from the start just like her.

Lao Min Na wondered if Zhao Li Xin regretted refusing her offer to work with him back then, if at that time Zhao Li Xin accepted her invitation maybe Zhao Li Xin wouldn't have to suffer like this.

Suddenly Lazarus interrupted causing Lao Min Na to snap back from her thought.

"Listen Min Na, I told you there's nothing I can't break in this world, right!" Lazarus laugh out loud while opening his arms widely "See how I turn happiness into despair, how I flip love into madness, soulmates into enemies, just like that" Lazarus snapped his fingers follow by an indescribable satisfaction expression danced over his face but a second later his wide smile vanish then replace with somber expression for a moment he lowers his head as if immersed in his thought then Lazarus turned his head towards Lao Min Na.

"Do you know what love is?" he asked innocently almost like a clueless child if it weren't for his chilling serpent eyes.

Lao Min Na subconsciously took a step back, for some reason she feels more afraid of Lazarus when he acts this way because she doesn't know what Lazarus will do next, whether he will gently caress her cheek or break her neck, she could never know.

But this time Lazarus did neither, instead, he look a bit perplexed, he seem not to notice the nervousness on Lao Min Na

But this time Lazarus did neither, instead he looked a bit perplexed, he didn't seem to notice Lao Min Na's nervousness as he mumble to himself. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

"There was a time I thought I knew what love was, I thought I knew what family love is but I'm not sure, how two broken men know what Love is, then I met a woman who taught me about joy, loneliness, longing, and tenderness, for a while life seems had a meaning and she's become my light - my only one so I thought it must be Love, right?...but they said I was wrong so I thought I was wrong again..." Lazarus shrugged nonchalantly but one could see a shade of disappointment etched on his face.

Lazarus became silent for a second before he turned his gaze back to Lao Min Na again. "So what is love, do you know about it?"

Lao Min Na's brows furrowed as she didn't know what to say then Lazarus suddenly waved his hand "Ah, forget it!" he smack his head playfully and then sneer "How can a woman who kills her own baby for power know what love is, pardon my stupidity Min Na" Lazarus chuckled then turned his gaze back to Lory and Zhao Li Xin's fight.

Lao Min Na clenched her fists until her nails pierced her skin, strange even after she became a Lazarus servant she still couldn't forget the guilt of killing her own son, honestly, she didn't know if she truly ever loved her son, the baby that even she himself wasn't sure who is the father was after what Zhao Mu Fan did to her.

Lao Min Na then dart her eyes back on Lory and Zhao Li Xin, people said 'Misery loves company' maybe that was one of the reasons why Lao Min Na was so eager to ruin whatever happiness that Lory and Zhao Li Xin could have caused if she couldn't have it, what right did they have, why is she the only one dragged into this hell? that's not fair.
